Animal Collective - Alvin Row (Song)
Alvin Row is a song by Animal Collective and the final song on their debut record Spirit They’ve Gone, Spirit They’ve Vanished. Opening up with a dissonant sound from the start, I must admit that I’m slightly discouraged by this considering the fact that this is the longest song …
Animal Collective - Street Flash (Song)
Street Flash is a song by Animal Collective and is the second track on their 2008 EP, Water Curses. Opening up lightly, the instrumentation on this track is pretty stripped down at the beginning as was the case with the preceding track. The interplay between the few instruments on …

Metallica - That Was Just Your Life (Song)
That Was Just Your Life, the opening track to Metallica’s latest record Death Magnetic, certainly has a feel and an energy that I don’t believe the band has had since 1991, the days of The Black Album. I’ll admit that when I first heard this album, this track honestly …

Rock music seems to have sprouted an absolute ton of different genres over the years, and one of these more current genres is the mixing of a metal like sound with a younger, almost pop sounding singer. Most of the time, it creates music that seems out of place …

Song: Hey Ya sung by Outkast
The song Hey Ya is a goofy type of song by the singing group Outkast. I heard it first when my boyfriend would play it all the time. I never really paid attention to the lyrics until recently though because it was just, to me a weird song. I …
Pink Houses by John Cougar Mellencamp

Kathleen Procter-Moore
My father used to say that music was his second language and I guess I inherited his DNA.
I so enjoy musicians and I’ve married three. I guess that qualifies me as someone that knows what is hard or easy on the ears, to a degree. Music is always subjective, as …
(Album) - Lei It Bleed - The Rolling Stones
Apotheosis sound of the band Jimmy Miller, who in the mid-60s reconverted the beethelian copy into a single group, introducing the black sound across the Atlantic. Not surprisingly, for this reason, I found the very Ry Cooder and Al Kooper in the credits, putting the album in a worthy …

The Soweto Gospel Choir
